About

Harvard House, The Gathering Place

We Bring Families Together for an Unforgettable Experience

Located in the historic Boston area (Waltham Massachusetts) on 15 acres of rolling wooded grounds, Harvard House is a beautiful Small Wedding and Rehearsal Dinner venue for up to 50+ people.

If you want a larger wedding, no problem. You can have the wedding at a nearby famous historic venue and have the rehearsal dinner, Sunday breakfast, or whatever else at the Harvard House. Let Harvard House be the place your wedding party stays at.

What differentiates us from the competition is that we offer a combination of intimate weddings, ceremonies, and wedding rehearsal dinners with Boutique Hotel accommodations for up to ten members of your family and closest friends.

We Focus Not Just On the Glamour and Glitz But On A Magical Atmosphere and Meaning

The Power of Love: eWe believe great wedding design is much more than cookie-cutter planning. It starts with the power of love. We put ourselves in your shoes and ask what would make this an unforgettable experience for you and your guests at every touchpoint.

We will go out of our way to make the whole process simple and easy for you and deliver on everything we have said above. No request is too large or too small. And no question is a bad one.

Further, we promise to be highly responsive to your phone calls, emails, and text messages at all times.

PS. Small is Beautiful, Intimate, and Affordable. Save your dollars for a spectacular honeymoon in Italy, Figi, the Galapagos or invest in buying your first house.

Harvard House-The Gathering Place

This is an amazing property! There was more than enough room for a Big Wedding Party, and all of the bedrooms were great! The outdoor spaces are ideal for socializing with larger groups too. There is a train in the center of the town that we took to Boston a few times. It’s a 20-minute train ride which worked really well for us with the kids. The property owner, Robert, is very patient and an easy person to work with in general. He really loved this place and it shows. I’d highly recommend this property if you have a large group!

Harvard House-The Gathering Place

We brought 3 generations into one house and there was something for everyone. A wonderful covered deck for talking. Great grounds for a big wedding party, rehearsal dinner and kids to play and explore. It was truly an oasis. The owner Robert could not have been more charming., T The whole family loved this home away from home.

I am a CEO and Founder, Coach, and Author of a Book called Mastering the Art of Creative Collaboration.

I started in the Boutique Hotel and Event Business in 2016 and found it a great career pivot.

My passion is not just renting out a Wedding Venue but providing a gathering place for far-flung families to reunite under one roof.

I enjoy creatively collaborating with the bride, groom, and planners in applying design thinking to creating a Signature Wedding Experience.

I also enjoy doing this at an affordable price.
